Dear patient
backlofen usually is not prescribed for back pain. it is usually prescribed for spasticity due to upper motor neuron disease because of its central action. you can take tab myoril 4 mg twice a day with tab ultracet twice a day for pain relief. Rest on hard bed. Avoid long term travelling. Avoid jerk movements and forward bending.
